As someone who owns resin printers, CoreXY, and bedslingers, there is nothing more reliable than the A1/A1 mini. The A1s are mechanically simple. The amount of belts, rails, screws, etc are much lower than on a CoreXY. Less maintenance, more reliability. The only stability concerns with any bedsling

As a side note, I was unable to get Orca Slicer to work wirelessly with my machine (AD5 Pro). I used their own Flash Print (trash software, but I could upload stls and send them wirelessly to my printer. It's like a slicer for toddlers, imho). I tried Orca Flashforge (which is just their own fork of

Als Alternative die oft übersehen wird könnte ich den Flashforge Adventurer 5M Pro eventuell empfehlen. Der Drucker wird seit fast 3 Jahren verkauft und ist auch von der Firmware her sehr ausgereift. Vom Komfort ähnlich wie ein Bambu Lab, aber die machen keinen Quatsch mit der Firmware und haben ein

MY PROBLEM: OrcaSlicer screwed up on an STL, which would only print 2 layers and quite. I researched and didn't find THE CAUSE. Solution was to use a different Slicer. I did several slicers and chose PrusaSlicer - it works. PrusaSlicer doesn't have Flashforge profiles. I setup a Machine profile and

Based on a lot of recent comments from other posts, I would advise avoiding the new firmware until it's stabilized. There has been a lot of people stating connection problems with it. You can get the previous version of the mobile app here: https://www.flashforge.com/pages/software-flash-makerList o

I would recommend Forge-X if you are going to install a klipper mod for the AD5M or AD5M Pro. It uses a checksum to ensure proper communication via wifi and provides all sorts of options for customization. My favorite feature is the inclusion of KAMP, which reduces the amount of poop from filament p

I'm in a similar boat as you. I received a used Flashforge Adventurer 5M for Christmas and have been playing around with it all week long. On your printer display, there is an option for FlashCloud under the Settings -> Cloud. I found the FlashCloud website (cloud.sz3dp.com) to be very helpful. I ca

I just had the exact same thing happen. I'm running a UDR7 and a FlashForge Adventurer 5M. Did you figure anything else out with this? I've just turned off the WiFi on the printer for now, I'll see if I can get it working over USB. Edit: Actually I just added some firewall rules to block it to the W

This in the bottom was recommended by AI but first pull the plug leave the power switch on while it's unplugged for 30 seconds... Then switch it off plug it back in and power it on it drains the capacitors that store electricity. Did you slice the file with orca flashforge I almost feel like the fil

Hi, I'm from the google search future. This happens on my flashforge adventurer 5m pro. It only happens when activating the internal webcam. It became such a reliable problem that I invested in an external wifi camera, since installing which I've had 0 3d prints fail except for in the case of runnin
